Roles Quotes

I think ‘No’ is a very powerful word in our business that is very hard to use early on in your career. But I also think I was pretty arrogant when I was younger... I used that word maybe too much, but it did help me with finding roles that I did like Picture Quote #1

It’s also a question of finding good material and interesting roles. I’m not the only actress out there, and good parts just don’t fall into your lap that easily. But I like most of the films I’ve made recently and so I’m pretty positive about the future Picture Quote #1

Age is the first limitation on roles that I’ve ever had to encounter, and I hit that awhile ago Picture Quote #1

Every artist’s world is an individual experience and no one thing can prepare you. You have to go in and go where those roles lead you - just allow it to happen and follow your path Picture Quote #1

To forgive others, in order to forgive ourselves, because in their roles as our mirrors, they have been nothing other than a tool to our lack of self-love, a lack of self-recognition, and a lack of self-respect Picture Quote #1

I’m looking forward to a future where there are roles of greater vulnerability and humor involved Picture Quote #1

I think we’re struggling with trying to redefine various positions at this point in history. To allow freedom for women, freedom for men, freedom from those sharply defined gender roles Picture Quote #1

Certain media-related developments in the country are raising questions regarding its objectivity and credibility. Paid news and the declining roles of the editors and their editorial freedom is posing a major threat to the Indian media Picture Quote #1

The most frustrating thing is picking up a script and loving the roles in it except the female ones... It’s really annoying and something I’ve striven to change in the industry Picture Quote #1

If you consider that the gender roles are just political, then what you come to see is that the full circle of human qualities is divided up so that two-thirds are masculine and one-third is feminine. Women are missing more of their human qualities, so you’ll find us on the fore-front of trying to change this Picture Quote #1

That’s always a fun thing to play, a relationship where there’s equals. I often play roles that are repressive, or women who are slightly repressed or having some kind of internal conflict Picture Quote #1

Lead roles are fun, but I’m especially happy other, more colorful supporting stuff has come along Picture Quote #1

One of the fun things as an actor is to really spread your wings as wide as possible and do a variety of roles. I’ve been really lucky in that sense, I think Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t be where I am without these Funny or Die videos in general. When I was first starting out, I would take roles just to get the experience, but not exactly because I believed in the projects I was doing Picture Quote #1

I know I can’t play funny roles in movies. I tried, and it didn’t work Picture Quote #1

The scene at a certain time was definitely boys; those huge warehouses were kind of violent parties, even. I think people in your immediate community made a nightlife scene that actually did break down gender roles and were along different lines of identity that had to do with race and experience in the 90s, rather than gender Picture Quote #1

Most critics of gender division are women, and they’re worried about girls and the roles presented for them by gendered entertainments. They are quite right to be. Telling girls that the cars and the guns are beyond their domain of expertise, and that they should content themselves with clothes and friendships, is limiting Picture Quote #1

Race and gender definitely came up, occasionally, in my life at work. But the bigger challenge that I had was age. I took roles earlier in my career than people expected, and so a lot of what I got was, ‘Do you actually know enough to do this?’ Picture Quote #1

My roles in the 80s were, like, gender dysphoric. I wasn’t pretty, I wasn’t this, I wasn’t that. And I am kind of butchy, you know. That’s just my thing Picture Quote #1

I can’t tell you how many couples I know where the husband and the wife are both in the military and have deployed together, and they’ve got kids, and so I think times have changed and gender roles have blurred when it comes to the military Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in being lazy, but I do think that this big kid thing may just be misinterpreting people who are taking advantage of all their opportunities and not tying themselves down to traditional gender roles or traditional life roles Picture Quote #1

I think it’s just different to get married for a woman than it is for a man. The amount of work to overcome certain gender roles in the partnership - just the expectation of housework, kid-work, whatever it is Picture Quote #1

It is the socially determined norms and traditions of gender roles, which must be challenged, and challenged with vigor. In nearly all countries, including America, the truth is that women have a low social status, and are considered inferior Picture Quote #1

I would put all the efforts to humanize the masculine and feminine gender roles that are the beginning of a false human hierarchy and normalize race, class and other systems of domination to come Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I’m interested in the female dom/male sub dynamic, and how superficially it can seem like a total reverse of gender roles and maybe even subversive or something Picture Quote #1

I do believe that it’s something that we don’t talk about, but when there are clearly defined gender roles, it is much simpler. Because you don’t have to think, which people apparently don’t like to do Picture Quote #1

America’s liberal arts universities have long been safe zones for leftist thinking, protected ivory towers for the pseudo-elite who earn their livings writing papers nobody reads about gender roles in the poetry of Maya Angelou Picture Quote #1

My gender has never been an issue or a limitation. I was fortunate enough to be surrounded by strong women growing up, and with them as my role models, I was never limited by the traditional roles women find themselves in Picture Quote #1

Power relations between men and women must change profoundly, men must be partners in the pursuit of gender equality, in their decision-making roles, as heads of state, CEOs, religious and cultural leaders, and as partners and parents Picture Quote #1

I’m not George Clooney, so I can’t just pick and choose. I take roles where they occur Picture Quote #1
